wmth@Romans:4:1 @ What then shall we say that Abraham, our earthly forefather, has gained?

wmth@Romans:4:12 @ and the forefather of the circumcised, namely of those who not merely are circumcised, but also walk in the steps of the faith which our forefather Abraham had while he was as yet uncircumcised.

wmth@Romans:4:13 @ Again, the promise that he should inherit the world did not come to Abraham or his posterity conditioned by Law, but by faith-righteousness.

wmth@Romans:4:17 @ so that the promise should be made sure to all Abraham's true descendants; not merely to those who are righteous through the Law, but to those who are righteous through a faith like that of Abraham. Thus in the sight of God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and makes reference to things that do not exist, as though they did, Abraham is the forefather of all of us. As it is written,

wmth@Romans:9:7 @ nor because they are Abraham's true children. But the promise was

wmth@Romans:9:8 @ In other words, it is not the children by natural descent who count as God's children, but the children made such by the promise are regarded as Abraham's posterity.

wmth@Romans:11:1 @ I ask then, Has God cast off His People? No, indeed. Why, I myself am an Israelite, of the posterity of Abraham and of the tribe of Benjamin.

wmth@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.

wmth@Galatians:3:7 @ Notice therefore that those who possess faith are true sons of Abraham.

wmth@Galatians:3:8 @ And the Scripture, foreseeing that in consequence of faith God would declare the nations to be free from guilt, sent beforehand the Good News to Abraham, saying,

wmth@Galatians:3:9 @ So we see that it is those who possess faith that are blessed with believing Abraham.

wmth@Galatians:3:14 @ Our freedom has been thus purchased in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing belonging to Abraham may come upon the nations, so that through faith we may receive the promised Spirit.

wmth@Galatians:3:16 @ (Now the promises were given to Abraham and to his seed. God did not say »and to seeds,« as if speaking of many, but »and to your seed,« since He spoke of only one–and this is Christ.)

wmth@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance comes through obedience to Law, it no longer comes because of a promise. But, as a matter of fact, God has granted it to Abraham in fulfilment of a promise.

wmth@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you belong to Christ, then you are indeed true descendants of Abraham, and are heirs in fulfilment of the promise.

wmth@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave-girl and one by the free woman.

wmth@Hebrews:2:16 @ For assuredly it is not to angels that He is continually reaching a helping hand, but it is to the descendants of Abraham.

wmth@Hebrews:6:13 @ For when God gave the promise to Abraham, since He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself,

wmth@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this man, Melchizedek, King of Salem and priest of the Most High God –he who when Abraham was returning after defeating the kings met him and pronounced a blessing on him–

wmth@Hebrews:7:2 @ to whom also Abraham presented a tenth part of all–being first, as his name signifies, King of righteousness, and secondly King of Salem, that is, King of peace:

wmth@Hebrews:7:4 @ Now think how great this priest-king must have been to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth part of the best of the spoil.

wmth@Hebrews:7:5 @ And those of the descendants of Levi who receive the priesthood are authorized by the Law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these have sprung from Abraham.

wmth@Hebrews:7:6 @ But, in this instance, one who does not trace his origin from them takes tithes from Abraham, and pronounces a blessing on him to whom the promises belong.

wmth@Hebrews:7:9 @ And Levi too –if I may so speak– pays tithes through Abraham:

wmth@Hebrews:7:10 @ for Levi was yet in the loins of his forefather when Melchizedek met Abraham.

wmth@Hebrews:11:8 @ Through faith Abraham, upon being called to leave home and go into a land which he was soon to receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing where he was going to.

wmth@Hebrews:11:17 @ Through faith Abraham, as soon as God put him to the test, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had joyfully welcomed the promises was on the point of sacrificing his only son

wmth@James:2:20 @ But, idle boaster, are you willing to be taught how it is that faith apart from obedience is worthless? Take the case of Abraham our forefather.

wmth@1Peter:3:6 @ Thus, for instance, Sarah obeyed Abraham, acknowledging his authority over her. And you have become Sarah's children if you do what is right and permit nothing whatever to terrify you.
